Jesus Is Your Saviour Child by Charley Pride Lyrics

Back home in Mississippi we were taught about the Lord
His ways were taught on mama's knee, good life was his reward
We worked from sun to sundown most each and every day
And when we'd got home hot and hungry and tired, mama kept us all to pray

And she said: "Jesus is your Savior, child, don't ever let Him go. Put your life in His direction, you will reap just what you sow. Praise His name and praise His glory, it was for us that He died. He will lead us into heaven, if we walk by His side."

Now many times my mind goes back and I am feelin' low...
To the good old days on mama's knee and the times we used to know. How she taught us from the good book when we might have gone astray and she'd hold us in her lovin' arms and teach us all to pray

And she said: "Jesus is your Savior, child, don't ever let Him go. Put your life in His direction, you will reap just what you sow. Praise His name and praise His glory, it was for us that He died. He will lead us into heaven, if we walk by His side

He will lead us into heave, if we walk by His side."
